Another goal from Christian Benteke meant the hosts were a single effort from pulling level in the second-half, and they hunted it with drive throughout the second 45.

Going forward, Wilfried Zaha and Eberechi Eze looked as bright as ever, and sure enough the former pulled his side level with a thunderous effort close to full-time.
